Natural capacitor voltage balancing for a flying capacitor converter induction motor drive

2008 IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference, 2008
This paper presents an analysis of the natural voltage balancing dynamics of a three phase flying capacitor converter when supplying an induction motor. The approach substitutes Double Fourier harmonic series for the PWM switching waveforms and the frequency response of the motor, to create a linear state space model of this type of load.

Capacitor voltage balancing method for modular multilevel converter with flying capacitor submodules

2017 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology (ICIT), 2017
The modular multilevel converter (MMC) is most widely acclaimed converter topology for high-voltage, high-power applications. Several multilevel submodules have been proposed to replace the conventional two-level submodules for MMC, allowing the reduction in the foot-print size of the converter for the same number of output voltage levels.

Capacitor voltage balancing in modular multilevel converters

6th IET International Conference on Power Electronics, Machines and Drives (PEMD 2012), 2012
A universal capacitor voltage control method for converters built from series connected modules is presented. It fully exploits both the circulating currents and the common-mode voltage without affecting the phase current control. The controllability of the capacitor voltages in various such converters is investigated.

Capacitor Voltage Balance on NPC Multilevel Converter

2019 International Aegean Conference on Electrical Machines and Power Electronics (ACEMP) & 2019 International Conference on Optimization of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (OPTIM), 2019
In this paper, a modulation strategy is formulated to be integrated in the model of a 5-level AC-DC converter. The resulting formulation is able to deals with the unbalance voltage problem generated in the dc-link. Such modulation strategy can be calculated offline and the solution can be stored as a multidimensional array for its use during the online

A resonant switched-capacitor converter for voltage balancing of series-connected capacitors

2009 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems (PEDS), 2009
This paper describes a resonant switched-capacitor converter (RSCC) for voltage balancing of several capacitor or battery modules connected in series. This voltage balancing circuit transfers electric charge between the capacitor modules with a soft switching operation, resulting in a reduction of power loss and EMI.
